Inpatient Daily Summary Report:
This tool answers “What is my daily inpatient census?”
Inpatient admissions are collected nightly from the Patient File, and then reported for any patients with an inpatient status for any part of a 24-hour period. Starting on the right, the graph shows a 30-day period beginning from the day before the most current receipt of data. For example, if data are received on the current day, the tool begins with the day before, and includes the 30 previous days. The graphs can be presented either in an overall numbers view (using the “Total View” button at the top of the tool bar), or by a beneficiary category view (shown).
The daily inpatient census for the MHS averages approximately 4,000 patients, with weekly peaks generally on Wednesdays. This tool can drill down to the Facility, MEPRS inpatient unit, and Staff Physician levels.
